I was the 12th guy to book it.
I booked it on Mar 16th, but later changed the color from Red White to Orange after 2 weeks. Will this delay my delivery?Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk ! - Tony Stark

Sorry, yaswathkonga. It cannot reach anywhere beyond 110 kmh at 8500 RPM unless you heavily modify the final drive ratio which further reduces the pickup.Originally posted by yaswanthkonga View Posttoday i clocked 132 around 8500+ rpm
Yes, if true. But here the speedometer error seems to be more than 24% but what I have read earlier is the error is 18%.Originally posted by neoakshay View Post132 @ 8500+rpm! That's awesome! Was this sitting upright or crouched?
I cannot understand what Honda is trying to sell here on its looks in the name of sportbike.
Originally posted by pravin.murthy View Post132!! @ 8500 rpm... Im sorry I cant beleive it.
I too cannot.
Quite impossible. Otherwise it is speedometer error.Originally posted by Boon View PostQuite possible. I still remember touching 134 km/h @8000 rpm when I rode the CBR 150R and finally ending in 146 km/h in full throttle.
[QUOTE=Satellite.kid;806864] If the review is to be believed, then CBR150R can achieve 100kmph (on speedo) in 3rd gear, which is bloody awesome for a motorcycle like this!
Yes; it can reach 100 kmh in 3rd gear at 12400 (twelve thousand four hundred) RPM. That too may not be possible as the gear ratios, I guess, are modified for pickup.
Exactly correct even in case of illusions or hallucinations!Originally posted by Satellite.kid View PostOn other hand, trust your own experience more than anything neoakshay.
To all: Let us wait for impartial reviews from experts and honest feedbacks from the current owners. Up to that, let us not quarrel on pass light/engine kill switch which is absolutely unnecessary on a sport bike like CBR150R. At least, CBR150R is supposed to be a sport bike even though it cannot go beyond 135 kmh at 10500 RPM where the maximum power output is; do not forget it.
As I said earlier, it is speedometer error and your bike cannot reach that speed at 6500 RPM.Originally posted by rohitheats View PostMy bike is still in run in so i have gone a max of 112kmph @6500rpm on top gear.
Just because of the larger rear sprocket for pickup. Get the slackness adjusted frequently. You can easily do it yourself if you know how to do.Originally posted by rohitheats View PostMy only concern is my chain has gotten slack after 450 km on odo.
Take it easy. It is not inevitable in everyday riding.Originally posted by shoeb2015 View PostBut even a splendor has a pass light switchLast edited by punarvasu; 05-01-2012, 06:25 PM.

How Do you know that ? Have you ever ridden the bike at 135 Kmh and failed to go beyond that ? There are already reviews from IAMBIKER and couple of other websites. Do you doubt their expertise ?Originally posted by Satellite.kid View PostIf the review is to be believed, then CBR150R can achieve 100kmph (on speedo) in 3rd gear, which is bloody awesome for a motorcycle like this!

Hey Rohit, it is normal for a new chain to get a bit slacky around the first 500 something KM. It will be adjusted during your first service. If you feel it is not comfortable now, take it to the ASC and they ll tighten it for you.Originally posted by rohitheats View PostMy only concern is my chain has gotten slack after 450 km on odo .Anybody else facing the same issue?
See if you get some feedback from 150R owners..the above case was with my 250R

Whether you are happy with your bike or not is not the point here. I am pointing out the actual speed this bike can reach. Please don’t misunderstand me. CBR150R cannot move at that speed at 9000 RPM unless it is modified.Originally posted by yaswanthkonga View PostI am happy with my bike... on the road...
yesterday i hav reached 135 between 8500-9000 rpm...

Whether I have ridden this bike is not a relevant here and this bike is not forbidden to anyone including me.
You need not ride a bike to find out the exact real speed it can reach at a certain RPM. The designing engineers too are calculating it before designing the bike; not finding it out by riding after production.
And if you have any doubt about the speed, please check it with GPS.

The bike(or any other vehicle) doesn't behave exactly like in the design drawings. There are lot of factors which affects the vehicle outside the drawing room.
To understand the vehicle`s real performance, test rides are done. A vehicle is made final to production only if the test rides are good. Not on the basis of drawings.Sometimes you gotta run before you can walk ! - Tony Stark
